The Return of the Butterfly

Description

From this return of the butterfly by M. R. H. M., Ameerah unfolds her story which sounds like a confused paean about love, identity, and personal growth. With some themes of cultural heritage, self-discovery, and that of belonging, Ameerah’s effort to understand herself as well as her place in the world is reflected through her toil to come to terms with her past.

Ameerah changes across the pages of this book much like a butterfly that breaks out of its chrysalis. The relationships and pressure from the family, as well as the harsh clash between her cultural identity and the demands of modern life, can be seen in this book. She learns to forgive herself as she faces her fears and desires and, finally, moves toward a major epiphany regarding love and acceptance.

The beauty of the coming back of Butterfly is in the lyrical prose, the thoughts on the human experience that they really do carry, so this read could be poignant for those who are interested in themes of empowerment and the beauty of personal transformation.
